I kindly got this while at the Berlin vintage computer festival in 2019 from René Meyer.

The KC85/3 used East German clones of Intel chips like the U880 which is a clone of the Z80. It's not the fastest when working in text mode as it doesn't actually have a "text mode". Everything is treated as graphics.
I intend to expand this post and show the restoration and write some programs for it. There is a active community who make new peripherals for it and it can be expanded considerably.
